Two weeks, seven volumes
8.17.2006 11:57 PM \| Link	Even though my last manga roundup was only a couple weeks ago, I've been reading so much lately that I need to write one again right away! I've read xxxHolic Vols 2 and 3, and it's really growing on me - I like the way the artwork flows, and the work that goes into it is amazing. The spooky storylines are fun, too, though I don't care too much about the crossover subplots (but I did like the cameo of Chi's "ears" from Chobits!). I really enjoyed Osamu Tezuka's Phoenix Vol 7, which is part one of the Civil War chapter - the Japanese history is fascinating and this is one of the thickest volumes yet! Kikaider 02 Vol 3 was pretty good - I really like the dramatic upgrade of the story (it's so different that the TV series), but this volume was almost all fighting scenes, which are interesting to look at, but manga without dialogue just goes by too fast. Midori Days Vol 7 was fun as always, but I'm guessing it has to wind down soon, and I finished Azumanga Daioh Vols 2 and 3, which is just about the most enjoyable light-hearted manga ever - I'm going to be so sad when I finish Vol 4, which is the last one!
